I work with couples of all kinds! Couples who are married,  couples who co-habitate, couples who are committed to one another but not married, couples thinking about marriage, married couples, couples expecting a new baby, and divorcing couples. Yes, even couples who have decided to end their relationship can benefit from therapy, especially when there are children in the mix.

Therapy on your couch, not mine

 I offer full length individual and couples counseling through a secure online platform to clients throughout California and Connecticut & Rhode Island. Online therapy has been shown to  provide the same benefits as in person therapy for most people, and often allows for more flexibility and comfort.

If you’re ready to start therapy and think online would be a good option for you, contact me for a free 15 phone consultation.

Unfortunately licensing laws prohibit me from seeing clients in states that I do hold a current license. Currently I’m fully licensed and can see people in the states of California, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Stay tuned, there may be more to come soon. 

Don’t worry! There’s no way to do a consultation call wrong. This is chance for me to get to know a little about what you’re looking for out of therapy and for you to get a feel for who I am and if you think you’d like to work with me. I’ll answer any questions you have and if you decide you want to work together, we will discuss next steps. 

I would love to get a chance to talk to you both during a consultation call, but I know that it’s not always easy to schedule. I’m happy to talk to just one partner during a consultation call as long as both partners are on board with that plan.

Couples therapy has been shown to be helpful even with day to day issues that pop up in a long term relationship. Common issues that every couple experiences at some point in their relationship such as: communication problems, a life change or stressor, or differences in beliefs/dreams/goals are all things that can be greatly helped by going to therapy together. Think of it this way – if you want your car to run well and have a long life, you take it in for oil changes, get the tires rotated, and take it in for tune-ups. You don’t wait for the engine to blow up and then hope the car turns out okay. It’s the same with relationships; they need care, maintenance and even the occasional tune-up to thrive and last.

You may be surprised at how affordable it can be for you and your family. Gone are the days where therapy is expected to happen at least once per week for years and years. Many people find that they can really benefit from therapy in as little as 8-10 sessions (depending on the issue and each individual). It’s often recommended that therapy start out weekly at first and then gradually space out (which is often financially more feasible for the couple). I always encourage folks to TALK to the therapist they want to work with and discuss a plan that would be financially comfortable for them.

This is something I hear all time!

Relationship therapy only works when both partners are open, willing, and able to participate actively. 

You’ll often hear me say “If one person says something is wrong, something is wrong”.

A good honest conversation is the first place to start (or revisit). Don’t wait for problems to get out of control, prevention is easier AND cheaper.

Sometimes fear can prevent people from  starting couples therapy and discussing some of the fears or roadblocks may be the first step to getting on the same page. 

A consultation call is a great place to ask questions and express and concerns or hesitations one or both partners may have.
